Gummy May 25th, 2008 7:05 PM

You're the mod Loki, you should be providing the answers! XD Since we're allowed to alter our usernames a bit, I don't think it's be a big problem if we altered the theme name as well.

THIRTY-SIX May 25th, 2008 10:18 PM

Is using thirty-six / 36 ok for me? I don't mind changing back to my original entry.
Also more people need to vote in sotw… some of the regular sotw-ers aren't even voting D:

Anyway, like Shiranui said, do we need all of 'Sunshine and Sunflowers' in the title? x_o

Someeeebody answerrrr meeee pleeease~ <3

Im happy with people changing the rules around just a BIT.
Like for instance, I accept munna using 36/thirty-six in his banners because he always does it, not just a one time thing. So its alright, I would usually tell someone if I dont accept their banner, if im not lazy ;D.

You could use Sunshine OR Sunflowers :P
Its sought of a two way theme.

I blame the new voting system. I don't think it's necessary to force people to say why they chose a banner. I guess some of them are too lazy, or just can't put in words what they feel about a certain banner.

'Till now only 12 people have voted... when around 25-30 people used to vote each SOTW.
Anyway, that's what I think. Don't hate me o.O

THIRTY-SIX May 27th, 2008 9:57 AM

Well I think giving a reason is much better. I mean you look at something once and like it. But when you look at it again it doesn't look as good… and same the other way around… things can grow on you by just giving a little thought as to why you like it.
I wish there was a poll in after giving your vote a message will pop up asking for the reason… and if you don't give a reason your vote become invalid. It's practically the same thing but the "poll" would attract more members.

Twinx May 27th, 2008 10:11 AM

I get what you mean munna. I had to think twice the last time I had to vote.. it took me more time than usual. But that's exactly what I meant.. it's harder to choose, ergo less members are gonna vote.

So it's quality over quantity. That's probably better.. I guess.

Snivi May 30th, 2008 9:03 PM

Cheese - you spelled Humor incorrectly for SOTW 12. ^^;

/Circa May 30th, 2008 9:16 PM

Lol, I did too didnt I ;D.
Anyways, People, dont start your entries yet, theres going to be a tweek in the rules, Ill have it finished in lets say, ten years five minutes.

Loki May 30th, 2008 9:21 PM

munna did have a tag, Cheesepeow. o_o

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v510/munna170488/gallery/pushingdaisies.png

^ His tag.

He didn't have the theme name or his username on it, you mean.

Not the sig, you know how he puts thirty-six in his banners? I let him use that instead of his username. But I cant really see it ;s.

Twinx May 30th, 2008 9:36 PM

Actually, it's right under the A in Daisies, but it's VERY hard to see... :/

/Circa May 30th, 2008 9:42 PM

Yeah, but the rules said it needed to be clear ;[. That was the problem.

Loki May 30th, 2008 9:47 PM

No, I wasn't pointing that out, I was saying that you misused the word tag. xD;

But either way, ohhh well. xDD

I'll probably skip Humor, unless I find a hilarious image that everyone would understand. |D

edit-ching: OMG IT HAS TO BE IN OUR SIG?! Yeah, I'm out. xD;

/Circa May 30th, 2008 9:50 PM

Oh, I just noticed it didnt say it in the rules.
My mistake :)

Snivi May 30th, 2008 10:15 PM

Do you mean SOTW has to be on the banner or in our actual signatures?

Pikabloo May 30th, 2008 10:18 PM

I was going to ask what Angela asked o.o

Humor? Oh my. I have a couple of funny images, but I think the only people who'll understand them are those who know of my obsession with Kurenai Otoya from Kamen Rider Kiva >.>

Eh, I'll try to think of something.

Snivi May 30th, 2008 10:20 PM

Frankly I thought it meant on the banner till I read Loki's post here.

/Circa May 30th, 2008 10:25 PM

Only the sigs for the contests, not all of your banners xD. That would be utter stupidity.

Loki May 30th, 2008 10:26 PM

No, I don't think you get what we're askin'. xD

We're asking do we gotta put SOTW in our sigs like you? As in, text?

/Circa May 30th, 2008 11:45 PM

Ooooooooh. Yeah :)
Im thinking of adding either SOTW or the theme name. No more username ;D.

THIRTY-SIX June 1st, 2008 6:02 PM

If you are going to disqualify me. Disqualify me… don't be half hearted about it.

Twinx June 1st, 2008 10:02 PM

Actually he left you out at first, but after spotting "36", he added you. =)

oh munna, thanks for providing the moved/deleted banners. I reuploaded the rest of them to my photobucket, just in case.

THIRTY-SIX June 2nd, 2008 5:37 PM

Remember to get the winners permission for a reupload.

Snivi June 2nd, 2008 5:57 PM

You can reupload mine all you want. xD

I am loving this weeks theme. Its fun =)

Hazuki June 2nd, 2008 7:47 PM

Humor? This is going to be tough.... I usually only make humor graphics in avatars. xD;

Hey I have a question, if we won the last SOTW, can we enter the theme you picked?

/Circa June 3rd, 2008 7:57 PM

You cant enter the theme you picked, I forgot to add that to the rules, but this week I was just mucking around with SOTW, I might actually get some graphics up, maybe a badge for da winna? :)

I like the entries this week, but their not really getting to the point, its supposed to be humor, not an encyclopedia :S. The signature doesnt need to look good, but you'll get the most votes if you make the person actually laugh. Just my point on this.

Loki June 3rd, 2008 8:03 PM

That actually depends on the voter's stand-point. xD; Like there are some banners that made me laugh a little, but they're not good graphic-wise, so I would never vote for them.

This is a signature of the week in the Graphics & Photography section, not the Punch-line section. ^^;

Those are my two cents on it.

Twinx June 3rd, 2008 8:08 PM

Just like Loki said, it depends on the voter..
I personally wouldn't vote for a banner that took 5 minutes to makes no matter how funny it was..
Other people won't care about how the banner looks, but on the content, since the theme is "humor"..

I really should have come up with something funny.. but my brain is dead xD

EDIT: CheesePeow, why don't you just copy/paste the rules everytime, since you seem to be forgetting some things xD
It might confuse newcomers..

Pikabloo June 3rd, 2008 8:19 PM

I'd like to think that the banners are being voted on based on their quality (as in, effects and the usual banner stuff), as well as how well they fit the theme o.o So, yeah, basically what DC and Loki said.

Now I feel like looking for a better quality Gunpei-towel-rubbing screenshot o.o

THIRTY-SIX June 3rd, 2008 10:14 PM

I'll be voting on the humour first then the graphical look.
Quite a few professional illustrators draw crudely… It's because of the "badly drawn" images that make it graphical. Stuff like Cow & Chicken and Ren and Stimpy <3.
I'm so stupid I should have entered this
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v510/munna170488/gallery/I-state-the-obvious.png

Loki June 6th, 2008 12:53 PM

Woah wait.

Why was Shiranui's entry not included? D:

Gummy June 6th, 2008 1:00 PM

because she is a tyrant and must be stopped.

I don't see anything wrong with the banner and it it pretty funny. It's a shame she got overlooked.

Twinx June 6th, 2008 1:01 PM

Maybe Motsuko was in a hurry and didn't notice the "SOTW" in her banner..
Loki, why don't you just edit it in?

Loki June 6th, 2008 1:57 PM

Well... xD;;

I'm not running the SoTW, and if there's a particular reason as to why Motsuko didn't add her in, I'd like to know before I go messing around with people's posts.

Azonic June 6th, 2008 2:40 PM

So do we have to put both the words Anger and Wrath? Or just one of them? o.o;

Pikabloo June 6th, 2008 3:40 PM

ZETSUBOUSHITA! o.o

-shot'd-

Oh, I keep forgetting to watch that anime xD

Ah, I knew I must have made the SOTW more noticeable ^^ Oh well, there's always next time~

Though I don't think I have any stocks/renders for this week's theme.

Loki June 6th, 2008 3:41 PM

I was intending it to be the same thing as 'Sunshine and Sunflowers' where you only have to put one. o_o

They generally mean the same thing, so I don't see the point of putting them both in. xD;

And I petition for Shiranui's to be added, because I can read SoTW just fine, even without my glasses on. D:< [/lol'[email protected]]

Pikabloo June 6th, 2008 4:08 PM

How about whenever someone gets DQ'd, it gets put up on the voting thread, along with the reason why?

So, something like this:

Quote:

Disqualified -
Username: reasons and stuff
o.o

/Circa June 6th, 2008 4:10 PM

I did that last time, and I also dont see anything wrong with your banner o.o
I think Motsuko might of just accidently missed it. We'll have to see when he gets on.

THIRTY-SIX June 6th, 2008 8:09 PM

Maybe he thought it was too intense as a sig for a pokémon forum. xD

Kinda lame how you weren't included. The others don't seem that appealing :<
And why is Loki in there? She won o.o;

Twinx June 6th, 2008 9:19 PM

Quote:

And why is Loki in there? She won o.o;
Loki isn't allowed to participate in Anger and Wrath because she chose the theme. She's still allowed to participate in Humor.

THIRTY-SIX June 6th, 2008 9:34 PM

Oh right yea… the week lag thing is getting me confused ._.;

Loki June 6th, 2008 9:45 PM

Woah, for a second there I was like, "Hey wait... you're right, why did I enter?"

*SHOT*

You're getting me confused. :<

THIRTY-SIX June 11th, 2008 3:26 AM

Huzzah for confusing people o.o;
Hurrah for humour sotw inspiring members for wrath too. xD

Pikabloo June 11th, 2008 4:22 AM

Because humor and wrath go together like... stuff. Darn, I can't think of anything.

Hooray for instantly thinking of the Angry Scientist after seeing "Anger/Wrath" as the theme? o.o

Well, not instantly. Maybe a few hours delay...

Motsuko Live June 11th, 2008 11:03 AM

Woa, haven't been in this thread for a while... time to catch up.

Oh yeah >_>
Sorry about that. I must have overlooked the banner. I edited it in a few hours later, if I remember correctly. I felt pretty darn embarrassed, though. xD

SORRY SHIRANUI! =[
We're still spaminized with each other, right?

/Circa June 12th, 2008 11:05 PM

I can't really do SOTW anymore. Im sorry to let you down, but i've been a bit busy with my crap life. I guess someone is going to have to work something out between this.

If things get a bit messy I might have to put in a detail description of whats going on, but hopefully someone gets it.

Good luck to anyone who keeps this running.

Motsuko Live June 13th, 2008 7:25 AM

I just spoke to Loki, and I'll be continuing SOTW.

Snivi June 13th, 2008 6:12 PM

Isn't it too easy for people to cheat since you cannot see the public votes? You know how you can see who voted for what.

Gummy June 13th, 2008 6:23 PM

I suggested the whole "making the polls public" things since the first SOTW, but I think the previous method was a good way to stop cheating. Now that we've gone back to polls, I think we should at least make the polls public.

Pikabloo June 13th, 2008 6:26 PM

lawl, Motsuko remembered all the entries, but maybe he forgot to make the poll public...? xD

Meh, but I see no reason for people to cheat anyway. For winning, you only get some bragging rights (well, not even that), and the chance to choose the theme for the next SOTW. whoever cheats is a sad person. Eh, there's always next time? ^^;

Maybe someone should start making SOTW winner badges -hint hint-

-shot'd-

Motsuko Live June 13th, 2008 6:42 PM

AWW! *freaks out* Why me!? lawlz
Anyway, is there a way to edit the poll? 'Cause I certainly will make the poll public if there's a way. And about those badges... I'll make them, though I don't think they'll turn out very well. But I think I might know who could do a good job at them... *runs off*

Snivi June 13th, 2008 6:49 PM

Higher staff can edit polls.

Renyui! June 13th, 2008 7:11 PM

Ahh, shadows. Time for me to get off my lazy un-sotw Butt and start graphic making. It'll suck though. I'm in a really bad slump lately.

Pinocchio June 15th, 2008 4:27 PM

Argh I better make a banner for once this month. xP
My gawd Evilcheese's is awesome!

Twinx June 15th, 2008 7:11 PM

I don't think I'll be participating in this one.. we'll see.

Can't wait to see the rest of the entries...

THIRTY-SIX June 19th, 2008 11:08 PM

Well I know who I'm voting for in 14… but I doubt they'll win. Almost every time I vote for a person they don't seem to do well haha.
Oh yea Shiranui the shadow is thee blue wave from sotw1.

The next SOTW theme is "Chibi"

Motsuko Live June 21st, 2008 3:33 AM

Sorry, Renyui... I had to WAIT ON SOMEBODY!
*glares at Twinx*

jkbutya... SOTW #15 is up. And thanks for spoiling the theme, Twinx xD

/Circa June 21st, 2008 4:14 PM

Yay, Chibi!
I have the perfect stock of Himoura Kenshin for this ;D, time to stir up some creativity.

Pikabloo June 21st, 2008 5:12 PM

-twitch- Chi-CHIBIS?! DD:

I can't work with chibis to save my life D:

-goes to sob in a corner- >.>;

Gummy June 21st, 2008 8:13 PM

Do plusies count as chibis?

Example.

Motsuko Live June 22nd, 2008 2:23 AM

I'm not all that familiar with them myself...
I'll let Twinx decide. After all, he chose the theme. ;3

Blargh. I abhor chibi's. xD;;

Definitely sitting this one out.

Gummy June 22nd, 2008 10:25 AM

All the pros are dropping out? Once again, I see my chance to win! (but I'll just get one vote like last time :()

THIRTY-SIX June 22nd, 2008 10:26 AM

I need to draw the doctor, but probably will be too lazy for that. xD

Pikabloo June 22nd, 2008 4:23 PM

Thanks to Imagin Anime, I managed to actually pull a banner together.

\o/ Hooray for Den-O!

Twinx June 26th, 2008 9:10 AM

It's a tie between evilcheese and Phanima with only about one day left xD
Both banners are equally worth winning really ^^

EDIT: oh it's no longer a tie xD

parallelzero June 29th, 2008 10:23 AM

...cheese?

It's a very... different topic.

Twinx June 29th, 2008 10:28 AM

LoL.. cheese? o_O

Didn't see that one coming...

EDIT:
Are we allowed to enter a collab? .. not that I plan on entering this week, just asking.. ^^

Snivi June 29th, 2008 11:07 AM

Never thought the topic would be cheese.

THIRTY-SIX June 29th, 2008 11:08 AM

Fosters home for imaginary kids? xD;

Motsuko Live June 29th, 2008 12:16 PM

@ Twinx: I don't see a problem with entering a collab... just make sure you guys both agree on a theme if you win.

@ Everyone Else: Yeah, kinda strange theme... when evilcheese chose it, I was like, "uhh... Ok then". But whatever... it'll require alot more creativity, at least.

Snivi June 29th, 2008 3:00 PM

Looks like someone voted for themselves -_-

Motsuko Live June 29th, 2008 5:51 PM

Oh, how nice. @[email protected]
I disqualified him. Maybe I should take away the one week ban from now on, too... it seems kinda harsh. :<

EndGame June 30th, 2008 1:56 AM

its a shame i came along when i did, i had the perfect lil chibi i made about a year ago. oh well, cant dwell on the past, just gotta hope this one goes well.

is this theme so ubsurd that only four of us are gonna enter?
it cant be that bad, can it?

Gummy July 2nd, 2008 11:48 AM

I may enter, but I'm still a bit disappointed from previous contests. Is it too much to ask for one vote! XD

Loki July 2nd, 2008 11:55 AM

EndGame: I dunno, but it's certainly not so ridiculous that it merits a double post. ;<

-merged-

Twinx July 2nd, 2008 12:00 PM

well.. it's not an interesting theme really..
I hope next week's theme is better.

Gummy July 2nd, 2008 8:48 PM

Looking at a Mickey Mouse render gave me a sudden jolt of inspiration, and I actually made a banner for this SOTW.

THIRTY-SIX July 2nd, 2008 9:27 PM

:< Oh you cannot be serious xD;

EndGame July 3rd, 2008 12:28 AM

you just gotta keep an open mind about everything and let the creative juices flow.

ps. thanks loki, sorry bout that ^_^''

Pikabloo July 3rd, 2008 1:22 AM

...! I have an idea, but I'm too lazy to make the banner.

And if I started making it, I don't think I'd be motivated enough to finish it by the time voting starts :P

BeachBoy July 5th, 2008 6:46 PM

Well, Michips, thank you for the very promising theme. :'D

I really had fun with this one, just have to wait and see I suppose. First SOTW, a surfing moose, and now... insanity. I'm liking the roll I'm on right now. :D Have fun with the theme everyone.

And good one, Evilcheese. ;D

EDIT: Loving this week's title, Moo. ;D

Ooka July 5th, 2008 6:51 PM

I thought yours was pretty funny BeachBoy. Did you actually make it in paint?

Pikabloo July 5th, 2008 8:18 PM

Ryab, has your brain been eaten by profitz? xD

Nice theme though. I finally got to use that render I've been wanting to use for a while.

Renyui! July 6th, 2008 4:19 PM

Insanity? I hope my banner isn't too serious. Anyway, love the paint banner, Beachboy!

evilcheese July 6th, 2008 7:29 PM

ok i know loki isn't going to be here for a while so we need another moderator to sticky the sotw threads.

Motsuko Live July 7th, 2008 2:34 AM

Already taken care of, evilcheese. I asked Ausaudriel to sticky the threads for me while Loki was away. She was just waiting for me to PM the links to her.

THIRTY-SIX July 7th, 2008 2:37 AM

SOTW #16 - Cheese
That needs to be unstuck though.
I pm'd .fate but he ignored me. xD

Michii July 7th, 2008 6:33 AM

The thread isn't doing any harm, so we can wait for it to be unstickied. =)
